IWeb claiming to be missing a large amount of files.

After experiencing errors when trying to publish iWeb to a local server, I first backed-up, then cleared the iWeb cache, preferences and Domain file after reading it might help. Ironically, now I have a much bigger issue: I returned a backed-up copy of the Domain file to Library>App support>iWeb, but upon opening iWeb back up again, I get a "The following errors occurred while trying to open this document" box with a long list of missing media files (.png, .jpg) along with templates, etc.
I've checked random media files within the domain file and they all give the user read&write access. I even tried returning the preferences and cache .plist files to their rightful places. I've spent a day and a half now trying to figure this out but to no avail. I realize weening off of iWeb eventually is imminent, but for now I simply need the pages to be able to be edited in iWeb as before. Tranferring them to the 3rd party app I tried, Sandvox, strips many page elements.
I tried loading the domain file onto iWeb on another machine and the same error occurs. This is some of what the log in Console is telling me:

Try the following:
move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
launch iWeb and try again.
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor.

do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Large amount of files

I have a quite reliable AEB + airdisk set-up and can transfer large files. Wireless and wired speed is about 1Gb per 2-3 minutes.
Everything is fine until I copy a large amount of files to the airdisk.
I've tried 8000 files which went OK.
I've tried a package with 22500 files and it fails. The connection drops and I have to restart the AEB.
Are there any similar experiences that show that the number of files is a critical factor?

It was no TM back-up, it's just a Lightroom catalog file that contains 22,500 items tat I drag-and-drop to the Airdisk.
From my experience, that's likely to fail because AirDisk will most likely to crash when dealling with large number items in one single operation.
Does looks like a memeory allocation problem on the firmware.
I got around the problem by just plug the external usb hard drive directly to my Mac. I hope TC doesn't have similar problem, otherwise, it's would be much harder to get the HD out of the TC

Finder issues when copying large amount of files to external drive

When copying large amount of data over firewire 800, finder gives me an error that a file is in use and locks the drive up. I have to force eject. When I reopen the drive, there are a bunch of 0kb files sitting in the directory that did not get copied over. This is happens on multiple drives. I've attached a screen shot of what things look like when I reopen the drive after forcing an eject. Sometime I have to relaunch finder to get back up and running correctly. I've repaired permissions for what it's worth.
10.6.8, by the way, 2.93 12-core, 48gb of ram, fully up to date. This has been happening for a long time, just now trying to find a solution

iomega, lacie, 500GB, 1TB, etc, seems to be drive independent. I've formatted and started over with several of the drives and same thing. If I copy the files over in smaller chunks (say, 70GB) as opposed to 600GB, the problem does not happen. It's like finder is holding on to some of the info when it puts it's "ghost" on the destination drive before it's copied over and keeping the file locked when it tries to write over it.
This may be a stretch since I have no experience with iomega and no recent experience with LaCie drives, but the different results if transfers are large or small may be a tip-off.
I ran into something similar with Seagate GoFlex drives and the problem was heat. Virtually none of these drives are ventilated properly (i.e, no fans and not much, if any, air flow) and with extended use, they get really hot and start to generate errors. Seagate's solution is to shut the drive down when not actually in use, which doesn't always play nice with Macs. Your drives may use a different technique for temperature control, or maybe none at all. Relatively small data transfers will allow the drives to recover; very large transfers won't, and to make things worse, as the drive heats up, the transfer rate will often slow down because of the errors. That can be seen if you leave Activity Monitor open and watch the transfer rate over time (a method which Seagate tech support said was worthless because Activity Monitor was unreliable and GoFlex drives had no heat problem).
If that's what's wrong, there really isn't any solution except using the smaller chunks of data which you've found works.

ADT Not Working With Large Amount Of Files

Hi,
I posted a similar issue in the Flash Builder forum; it seems these tools are not meant for anything too big. Here is my problem; I have an application that runs on the iPad just fine, however I cannot seem to be able to package any of the resource files it uses, such as swf, xml, jpg, and flv. There are a lot of these files, maybe around a 1000. This app won't be on the AppStore and just used internally at my company. I tried to package it using Flash Builder, but it couldn't handle it, and so now I have tried the adt command line tool. The problem now is that it is running out of memory:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

I tried increasing the java memory heap size to 1400m, but that did not help. What is disturbing though is why this day and age, the adt tool is written solely for 32 bit java runtimes, when you can no longer buy a 32bit computer. Almost everything is 64bit now. Being able to utilize a 64bit java runtime would eliminate this.
Has anyone else had to deal with packaging a large number of files within an iPad app?
thanks

Hi,
Yes the bug number is 2896433, logged against Abobe Air. I also logged one against Flash Builder for the same issue basically, FB-31239. In the tests I have done here, both issues are the result of including a large number of files in the package. By reducing the number of files included, these bugs do not appear.
I would liketo try out the new SDK, but it won't be available until a few more weeks, correct?
The main reason I want to include all these files is because the iPads will not always have a wireless connection.
thx

I downloaded an album and all of the songs are missing a large amount of audio. For most of the songs, the sound cuts out and skips to the next song.

The album is "The Mantle" by Agalloch. Whenever I try to play a song, it will skip to the next song. For example, the song "Odal" ALWAYS stops playing at 12 seconds in.
If anyone can help, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Does this happen with all tracks? Has iTunes ever played music correctly on the computer?
Check out this Apple document -> iTunes and QuickTime for Windows: Audio does not play or plays incorrectly
If you bought thte album from iTunes and its the only one having a problem, you should contact the iTunes Store with Express Lane.

Fastest way to "view" a large amount of files

I am looking for a solution to speed up my workflow. I am previewing a lot of folders that contain up to 200 unique PSD files each. Each file can be anywhere from 10mb to 300mb. I am only previewing these files for design once, and will never see them again, but want to see them at a high enough res and size to approve them. Each file is a completely new and unique file, so I don't need to keep my cache, because I will never need to preview it again. I don't want to slow down the designers by having them create high quality thumbnails, so it is up to me to create them. All files are on a server, and my cache is on my hard drive. I have a lot of space, so I am not concerned with that, and clear it every so often.
Here are the steps I am taking.
1. I have created two workspaces: "Thumbnail" and "Preview". I start out in my thumbnail workspace, which has the slider way down so all files fit on screen. The thumbnail extractions start creating small thumbnails automatically, and this is usually very quick.
2. Once the thumbnails are done, I select them all and right mouse click and choose "Generate High Quality Thumbnail". This is where things slow way down. This process takes a lot of time. I do this because it give me control over when the higher res. previews/thumbnails start, so I can view all the files at once, which is important.
3. Once I have the high quality thumbnail, I select my preview workspace which has the slider way up. These get viewed, then moved over to "production", and I never see them again.
Two Questions:
1. If I go to a folder in my "Preview" workspace without generating the HQT, then it tries to create previews and thumbnails, not high quality thumbnails. What is the difference between a preview and a high quality thumbnail?
2. And my big question is there a more efficient way of doing this workflow?
Thanks in advance.

As nearly everyone has its own workflow I would choose another one (Although
I have no experience with files on a server, I have a stand alone workflow).
You could choose to put all folders in one main folder and in Bridge
Preferences under cache put a checkmark in front of the "automatically
export cache to folder when possible".
Point Bridge to this main folder and in the menu tools choose cache/ build
and export cache. Also check the export cache to folder option.
Hit OK and go for a coffee break because it needs some time (depending on
speed and power of the machine, amount and size of the files) but Bridge
should cache all subfolders and its content in one go.
When you get back you only need to select a folder that will be already
cached with high quality previews. Sort and rate, delete or whatever you
want and even use your own workspaces. It only might take a little time to
read the exported cache file when you point to that folder but then you can
browse through al the files with HQ thumbs.
Two Questions:
1. If I go to a folder in my "Preview" workspace without generating the HQT,
then it tries to create previews and thumbnails, not high quality thumbnails.
What is the difference between a preview and a high quality thumbnail?
2. And my big question is there a more efficient way of doing this workflow?

Mountain Lion Finder "unresponsive" (Beach balls) when trying to copy large amount of files

Before Mountain Lion, using Lion - transfering 999 files from my compact flash card to my SSD hard drive via a FW800 reader was SO easy. Select all, drag and drop and the transfer would begin immediately.
Now, after upgrading to Mountain Lion, I experience at least 60 seconds of beach balls and an "unresponsive" finder. Sometimes it starts to transfer, sometimes I have to relaunch finder.
I've reset the PRAM (although I didn't hear 4 beeps), the SMC, I did verify and repair disk permissions.
Any thoughts on this?
Thank you,
(Late 2011 15 in MBP)

WebUtil_File.File_Open_Dialog VERY SLOW with large amounts of files

Dear Friend,
We are using WebUtil_File.File_Open_Dialog on the client to allow for the selection of an image from a folder on the server, which contains around 2-3000 files.
It takes around 10-15 minutes to display the files within the folder. This is obviously unacceptable and I was wondering if anyone had come up with a viable solution to this problem, as i noticed similar issues had been posted in the past and no solution was suggested.
The function call for the above operation is: :control.fichier := WebUtil_File.File_Open_Dialog(:global.path||'images\bdsurvey\', '', '*.jpg |*.jpg| (All files)*.* |*.*|', 'Nom du fichier photo');
Many thanks,
John

This can be done by the following:
Tuning the file system - reducing/filtering unwanted files, defragmentation, FAT (NTFS might consume more time)
I am not sure whether you can do anything for this in AS.
Alternatively there are some java classes which may be used instead of web util.

I have a large amount of files to be compressed...

avi format that I'm changing to DV NTSC so that I can edit them in FCP. They all have the same output settings and same destination. Is there a way to apply the same settings to several files at once instead of having to drag them to each individual file? It gets really monotonous, REALLY quickly. I'm just trying to find a way to streamline it.

Click the batch window to make it active, then select a clip (it should be highlighted with blue)
Press Command A to select all, then drag a preset. If dragging doesn't work, with all of your clips selected, go to the "Target" menu in the menu bar, then choose "New Target With Setting...". This will open a dialogue box similar to the settings window, find your preset and click OK.

How to Number Large Amount of Files?

Hi. I have a folder with about 600 funny photos that I randomly saved. And you know how pictures you save from sites have random long numbers as names?Well here is what I want: I want to know if there is a way to automaticaly number all the photos starting from 1. Can you tell me if there is a way to do it that is already in Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 or recomend some software please? Thank you.

Nevermind, I just noticed you had your email address on your profile. I just sent you the file. It was created a while ago using an older version of Mac OS X - but still works. You're looking for the function 'make sequential'. Just use my file as a reference and I'm sure you'll figure it out yourself in no time. I created my template to automatically rename TV Shows and it actually uses a variable that I put in manually (automator doesn't support that kind of variable, you have to do it by hand in the code - but you can just ignore that for now).
Hope this helps!

Why does safari 5.1.2 crash when large amount of files are put in the "automatically import" folder

Organizing large amount of files

We are moving many of our documents to Office 365 Sharepoint Online. A couple of the folders we are moving are deep and contain many subfolders and files. For example there is a customer history folder with files (mostly Excel) and subfolders for pretty
much every job ever done so it has around 10000 or so files/folders. I understand there is a 5000 file limit for Libraries in Sharepoint Online. What is the best practice? Re-organize the files and break them into libraries? To allow for growth I would make
them a lot less than 5000 each. Currently it is alphabetically, so is the best way to break it up (A-E, F-J...ect). Just looking for some thoughts/advice. We were hoping to not have to reorganize but it does seem it is necessary... right?
Thanks very much.

Hi CTNorthShore. The 5,000 limit you refer to is known as the list view threshold. It is not a physical limit on how much data a document library can hold but a limit on how many items a list view can operate on. Once a library exceeds that limit it can
affect some client tools - the main one being the OneDrive for Business sync tool.
A library in SharePoint Online can actually hold many hundreds of thousands of files if not millions and you can edit and browse those files fine in a web browser.
If you are planning on syncing all your files locally using the OneDrive for Business sync tool then you will need to break down your files in to separate libraries to keep below the list view threshold of 5,000 (or 20,000 if its your OneDrive for Business).

" is missing - FCP can't see file name to reconnect it

I have moved a large amount of files assuming I could easily reconnect using media manager. It now says " is missing and seems unable to see that I have 100s of named files to import. The only solution I have is going through each file one by one and manually locating it.
Anyone know this issue and a fix?!

Yes, do a search in this forum and you will find a few threads about it.
As far as I know there's no solution yet.
Can you give us more detail about your setup (version FCP etc) and the kind of Files you are using? (XDCam, DV, Prores, etc)
Maybe we can find a common denominator which causes this problem.
It also might be helpfull if you exactly did with those files.
for exemple: Was FCP running while you moved them?
Was the disk disconnected while you opened this project? etc
Please be accurate.
Also send your problem as detailed as possible to apple feedback. Follow this link: [FCP Feedback Page|http://www.apple.com/feedback/finalcutpro.html]
For now: Keep on reconnecting...manually. Sorry

File Bundle with large number of files failed

Hi!
Well, I thought there will appear problems. We do have some apps for distribution just by copying large amount of files (not large in size) to Windows (XP Pro, usually) machines. These is some programs which works from directory wo any special need for installation. Happy situation for admin. From one side. In ZfD 4.0.1 we did install this app on one of machines and then did take snapshot via special app (who remember) and did copy file to (Netware) server share, give rights for device (~ workstation) and associate it with ws via eDir and ... voila, next restart or whatsoever and app was there. Very nice, indeed, I miss this!
So, I tried to make this happen on ZCM 10 (on SLES 11). Did app, sorry, bundle, upload files (first time it stuck, second time id accomplish, around 7500 files) and did distribution/launch association to ws (~device). And ... got errors. Several entries in log as examples below.
Any ideas?
More thanks, Alar.

ZCM10 is not efficient in handling that number of files in a single
bundle when they are in the content repo.
Suggestions include zipping the files and uploading to the content repo
and then downloading and extracting the zip as part of the bundle.
Or Use the "Copy Directory" option to copy the files from a Network
Source Directly like you did in ZDM.

Transferring large volume of files from mac to PC?

Hi i have a mac with osx 10.4.8 and a pc, i need to transfer a large amount of files from mac to pc (around 200GB)
Now i have lots of external HDs which are all used by either the PC or the macs. the ones formatted for the macs cannot be read atall by the PC without some expensive software, the PC formatted one i have appears to be readable on the mac, but when i try to copy the files onto it or change anything, i am not able to change/add anythingn due to permissions problems.
Not sure what to do, i have quite a few HDs with plenty of sapce, but if they are all in the wrong format i cant really wipe/reformat them easily with files on them, nor do i want to buy yet another HDD just to transfer some files....
Any ideas/advice?
